Homework Statement
10g of ice at 0 degrees Celcius is combined with 2 g of steam at 100 degrees Celcius. Find the final temperature of the resulting water.
Homework Equations
mc(Tf- Ti)
m(Lf) or m (Li)
The Attempt at a Solution
ΔQice=mLice+mcwaterTf
ΔQsteam=mLsteam+mcsteamTf-100 degrees celcius
I set this equations to 0 and solve for Tf and i get this
Tf=mCsTi+mLv-mLf/mCw+mCs and i get 93.9 degrees celcius and that is not the answer
the answer is 40.4 degrees celcius. help?
